A Journey Into The Animal Kingdom @ Singapore Zoo

Hello everyone, my family and I just went to the zoo yesterday and I’m going to blog about it. My sister was thinking of a place for a family outing, she asked the rest of the family where we wanted to go for an outing, the rest of us had no idea where we wanted to go so, in the end we decided to go to the zoo. My sister tasked me with finding all of the needed info I had to find out ticket prices and all that kind of stuff. Everything was set for the outing. I asked my sister for the timing to wake up and she said 8am but, I though she said 7:30am so, I set my clock 1 hour back to wake me up at 6am. The next morning my alarm sounded and I was trying to wake my mum and younger brother up, then I saw my sister’s message, I was like “ Oh dear I woke them up at the wrong time!” After I said sorry to both my brother and mum I went to get onto my wheelchair to get ready. At 8:05 my grandaunt came to pick us up to send us to the zoo.

Once we arrived we had a light snack before heading into the zoo. My sister went to get the tickets; the ticket price was $110 when I searched for it online but thanks to my mum’s NTUC membership card we were able to get a discount. At 9:00 am I was the first one to go into the zoo my sister told me that I only had 10 seconds to get pass the barrier, I managed to wheel myself pass the barrier. The first animal that we came across was the Crocodiles. There was one crocodile that was completely still, my brother and I wondered weather was it a real or a fake crocodile, to find out we looked at it closely then we saw it snapped it’s jaws than we were like “ Ok it’s real!!”

The next animal we went to look at were the White Tigers, I told my grandaunt “ I’m going to look at my brother right now.” The reason I made that joke was because my brother was born in the year of the tiger in the Chinese zodiac. When we got to the white tiger’s area, one was sleeping and the other one was walking around, my brother said, “This is like me every morning.”  After we left the tiger area we went to the Ah Meng restaurant to have our meal, I had my all- time favourite dish chicken rice.

After a nice meal we went to the insects dome to see the butterflies, one of them actually landed on my brother’s shoulders my brother was screaming and holding onto my grandaunt’s legs ha ha. At this point my forearms wanted to die after all of the wheeling and pushing. None of us wanted to see the snakes, my sister wanted to  see the snakes then my sister went to see the snakes by herself while my grandaunt and I waited at the loin’s area. Now I was so tried that I started yawning, the sleeping lion woke up to roar at me. Our last animal encounter for the day was the polar bear. It was freezing cold in there.

After a long day at the zoo we went to Swensen’s for dinner, when it was time for me to have my hot fudge subdue my dad handed me a really long spoon. I kept dropping it. It  was a really fun day See You Soon.

A lovely Evening @ USS

So, after returning home from my school’s sports meet, I quickly went to take a nap because I had to for an outing to Universal Studios Singapore (USS). Woke up at 4:30pm to get ready for the event, I was so happy to fulfil my dream of going there. At 5pm the bus came to send my younger brother and I to the venue. During the bus ride I was talking to my brother and his friend, this was first time that I talked to people my age and it felt really good!! After the one-hour bus ride we finally arrived at the venue. We had to wait for everyone, which took about 45 minutes; I was so bored till I had to read the map for the whole 45 minutes. After 45 minutes we left for a nice walk, we didn’t go on any rides but we saw some fireworks I have a video click if you want. After the fireworks we went for dinner at a rainforest themed café. I had fries and chicken. We went home at 10:59. Nonetheless I had fun. See You Soon.J 

My School's 51st sports meet @ MJC

Hi everyone, my school’s 51^st sports meet just happened yesterday and I’m here to blog about it. Ok let me take a step back in time one month to be exact. My teacher was a member of the sports meet committee so, my class and I helped out by doing anything we were tasked with, and I was in charge of selecting the songs for the day. I spent almost the whole day sitting in front of my classroom’s computer selecting the songs there were a few rules that I had to follow the rules were:

1. No vulgar words in the songs
2. It must be songs that kids would enjoy
3. The songs must have a fast tempo

      So theses were the rules that I had to follow all so, I had to dig deep into my mind to find the songs that I knew that could comply with the rules, I had a hard time! But I did it! The whole school had to learn a mass dance for the sports meet, the song that we had to dance to was Hot And Cold by Katy Perry, the dance was too fast for me to follow but, after a few times I slowly got the hang of it. Everything was set for the sports meet.  When I went home I told myself “ Just go out there and have fun it doesn’t matter if I bring home a medal!”

Woke up at 5:00 am to get ready for the event, the bus came to pick me up at 6:10am to send me to Meridian Junior Collage (MJC) for the event. Once I arrived I could hear the songs that I picked for the event. Anyway I was heading to my tent to join my teammates.  At 8:00 the event started off with the dance we learned, I was too busy thinking about my race to dance. After the dance the MCs told the teams to show their cheers, I must say that the blue team was the loudest among all the teams. Well for the first few events my team did not look too good, it was blue that leading. When my event came, my heart was pounding like a drum, I told myself to relax and run. When I got onto the track I was running as fast as I can, I ended up getting the 3^rd place in the race. After the race I was so tired that I almost collapsed. The events went on as normal. At the next event I took part in  was a team race where we had dress a person up; our team came in 2^nd place. After that event it was time for the prize presentation, I had a sudden urge to go to the washroom, one of my friends helped me to collect my medals. The overall winner was my team. We were jumping for joy!! We went to take a team photo. Everyone was giving me compliments on the win. But I said, “ You did well too!” After the event I went home with a smileJ

A Walk To Remember

One of my of biggest dreams is to get a job to support my family, and myself I planned to get some training after I leave my current school. I have spoken to a person that I know that works at the training center that I wish to enrol into after I leave school and one of things that she told me was that I had to ride the train on my own to the training center to attend the classes that I want to enrol into. So today I tried to walk all the way to the nearest trains station using my walking aid. I must say it was a rather hot and tiring one hour walk, but today my class went down to the sheltered workshop in my school, these words kept repeating in my head when I was there the words were “ I want to find a job that can provide for my family I don’t want to come here!!” When I got home I told my mum to show me the to way the train station, she said ok.

And so at 4:07 we embarked on our walk to the train station. Once I went into the hot sun I quickly regretted going out at that time because it was really hot I wanted to give up but I used what I saw this morning as motivation to push myself forward to finish what I started. I was almost reaching the train station I was like “ YES I MADE IT!!” Then I saw my grandaunt’s car my grandaunt came to send us home. Once I got to the void deck of my block my mum bought me a can of ice lemon tea as a light refreshment. Sometimes You Must Push Your Yourself To Your Limits To Get What You Want.

The Steps To My Bigger & Brighter Future

In my last post I talked about my plans for a bigger and brighter future, this is the follow up on that post. Ok this post is going to be about things I have to do to pave my way to that bigger and brighter future that I envisioned for myself.

Step 1 Improve Social Skills

The first thing I think I need to improve on would be my social skills. I really need to boost my self-esteem and self-confidence, both of which I extremely lack. But I just can’t seem to find that boost that I really need. On the other hand I have to stop being self – centred, but sometimes I can’t help it I just have to talk about myself till people get bored of me and start avoiding me. My family has shared with me this saying” “The world is not only about yourself.” Till this day I’m still trying to find the meaning behind that saying. My social skills extremely lack around the people  my age because, I don’t really like the topics that they talk about like games and all that kind of stuff, I wish that one day I can find friends that enjoy blogging and music as much as I do, so that we give blogging ideas to one another or when we need some advice on how to improve on our blogs we can just ask each other, but not many people update their blogs nowadays. :(

Step 2 Build Upper Body Strength

The next thing I think that I must improve on for a better future would be to build my upper body strength, so that it will be easier for me to wheel myself on my wheelchair to anywhere I want to go. But the thing is I’m sacred of the dangerous things that might happen to me when I’m outside such as falling, being stared at and injuring myself. The other thing is that I always forget to do my push-ups; I need to stop being lazy and start living an active life if I want to have a brighter future.

Step 3 Learn How To Ride The Train

Once I build enough upper body strength, I would then wheel myself to the train station to learn how to ride the train. From there I can live my dream of going out on my own. I can go for a nice dinner with my extended family without my mum & dad. Or go shopping with my aunts.

Step 4 Go For Some Training

Once I know how to ride the train I would to go to one training center in Singapore to get some training to pick up some skills, which can be useful to me in a workplace environment. The skills that I would like to pick up would be talking to people to sell things or Photoshop. Then after I finish the training I can look for a job to support my family and myself. It’s like a staircase that I have to walk up. At the end of the staircase is a door the door that leads me to my goals. I want to open up that door that I see at the end of the staircase and stay there. Thanks For ReadingJ

My Plans for A Bigger and Brighter Future

Sometimes I ask myself this question “ What’s going  happen to me after I leave my school environment?” That question can reduce me to tears in a matter of minutes. What if I don’t go to the place I want to go to? I’ll tell you what’s going happen to me, I’ll be sitting at home doing nothing, that’s something that I don’t want to happen! I want to be able to earn my own income to ease the burden of my Mum & Dad. I want to be able to go out on my own to enjoy a nice dinner with my extended family. I still have 2 years to learn how to go out on my own. I have high hopes that I’ll be able to go out on my own someday, hopefully that one day will come soon. But what am I pulling my hair out now? I should just enjoy my last 2 years in school enjoying myself and learn as much as I can within the two-year period. But at the same I can’t stop thinking about my plans for a bigger and brighter future.
